      Because she virtue signaled and condescendingly lectured people since forever about how those influences are so very bad and everyone should do better. She, now infamously, had the tweet where she literally said "to educate ourselves so that we no longer work with people who would kill our friends". She also lectured some slimy dude about how he used his own daughter as a shield to justify such business decisions.
      And now she is taking the Saudi blood money because her baby or something. Betraying everything she grandstanded about and using her family as a shield to justify her business decisions.

    Never really understood why Frankie gets so much hate from the community but you can't please everyone.
    She was a good host in Antwerp and I think she does a lot for the sport.
    Frankie has also done a lot for the representation of women in esports which is only a good thing. As a mother too she's a good role model for other women who might want to get into production and esports events but may feel unable due to personal responsibilities.
    I fondly remember listening to BURNFM when studying in Birmingham too, so that was a cool origin story to share for us Brits.
    Keep your head up Frankie, look forward to seeing you at the next major in Europe 👍

      A lot of people have spread misinformation about who I have worked for this year so I'm within my right to clarify that.
      In terms of being full of myself, I was asked to do the video and I said yes because we get asked to do press at events and I was excited to talk about stage hosting.

    • @FrankieWard
      @FrankieWard Рік тому +10

      Thanks for the kind words about my work... I've not worked with ESL this year, so I can't agree with your claim of virtue signaling.
      I wrote one tweet about NEOM and BLAST and I don't regret it. At the time I also wrote about a couple of jobs I wished I hadn't done prior to that tweet. I have also written about how I cannot change the ESL takeover.
      Whether I work with them or not, people will say things about me, and it's been incredibly difficult seeing people constantly make things up about who I have worked for when the information is out there for all to see. I wasn't at Katowice, I wasn't in Cologne.
      I can take a lot of the abuse because it's mostly nonsense, but the things people make up are far more frustrating because I can't be everywhere all at once explaining it to people. I don't have the energy and I have the responsibility of family and finding new work opportunities while looking after a 6 month old baby. I also need to prep for the work I do have. It is exhausting.
